"We have had KingsCraft do two projects for us in the last two years, built-ins for our den and a pantry gut and remodel. Both turned out wonderfully and have dramatically increased our enjoyment of the spaces. KingsCraft was super helpful with design, materials selection and aesthetics. The work was high quality and expertly installed. KingsCraft provided a thorough overview and discussion of the work including sending drawings with our markups in the design phase interactions. I’ve worked with a lot craftspeople and KingsCraft is one of the best at what they do. I am having a desk built next."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, a bowed wall can be straightened in several ways. If the bowing is minimal, it can often be straightened by installing anchors or straps. For more severe basement wall bowing, your contractor might need to excavate the soil outside the foundation and pull the wall back into its original position to straighten it.

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

Generally completed within a couple of hours, depending on damage extent.

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry.
